About This Home
Sky Valley Ranch & Airstrip - A Pilot's Paradise on 160 Acres Welcome to Sky Valley Ranch and Airstrip, a one-of-a-kind 160-acre retreat featuring a private 1920s-era airstrip. The lighted airstrip measures approximately 2,340' long by 35-150' wide and is complemented by four spacious hangars (1,778 sq. ft., 2,020 sq. ft., 1,920 sq. ft., and 1,638 sq. ft.) and multiple tie-downsperfect for aviation enthusiasts, fly-in clubs, corporate retreats, or private getaways. Beyond the runway, the property boasts a charming two-bedroom, two-bath cottage (ADU), ideal for staying on-site while you design and build your dream home on one of the multiple scenic homesites. Step outside to a year-round 2-3 acre pond, perfect for fishing, swimming from the dock, or paddle boating. Adjacent, you'll find a gazebo and bocce ball court, plus two additional seasonal ponds. Equestrian enthusiasts will love the expansive space for horses to roam, complete with a two-stall stable and tack area. With your own private airstrip, the possibilities are endlessthink fly-in events, glamping retreats, weddings, vineyard operations, cattle ranching, agriculture, and more. There is significant potential for future development, including expansion of the airstrip, additional hangars, tie-downs, commercial and industrial ventures, and event hosting. Sky Valley Ranch has hosted hundreds of fly-ins, attracting seasoned pilots, including Vietnam-era Blue Angels and Lockheed professionals, as well as local aviators. Use has been minimal in recent years, preserving the peaceful, secluded nature of this beautiful valley. Located just 3 minutes off State Highway 4 in the heart of the Mother Lode, the ranch offers easy access to seasonal sports, large nearby lakes, and Copper Valley Town Square (just 5 minutes away) with hotels, restaurants, and shopping. Flights to San Francisco, Sacramento, South Lake Tahoe, and Yosemite National Park range from 15 to 40 minutes. This historic property has been in and out of the family since 1854. The owner reserves the right to retain 10% of mineral rights. Property is being sold as-is. Landings, hangars, and tie-downs are available by written permission only, with insurance and additional insured endorsement.
